    We live in Texas & cruise out of Galveston about every 6 months. Our next cruise is next month on Carnival Conquest. We were on the 5 day to Progresso & cozumel in Sept. We loved Progresso, because it has not been a port very long, the people are sooo friendly & the prices soo cheap! We have...

    Lasik eye surgery. Any body had it done?

    I looked into lasik and was told I would have to wear reading glasses afterwards also. The whole idea behind my getting the surgery was so I DIDNT have to wear glassses. So I talked to my eye Dr & have been wearing monovision contacts for about 10 years. I have the close up contact in right eye...

    Irish Wolfhounds

    The vet clinic I worked at had a few as clients. They were very shy with strangers, kinda scarey because they were so big (fear biters were the worst to deal with very unpredictable) and my boss use to say they were a hard pet to own because they had a lot of heart problems & they had a short...

    Puppy getting second shots.

    The vet may not have had a choice on when to give Rabies, if your state requires it no earlier than 3 month then your vet can not break the law even by one day. Having worked in a vet clinic, we had to turn people away because they were one day or one week too early by the birthdate given by...

    New Mom for 8 and 10 year old

    I also agree with Marty. This child has been through a huge trama. She may not be handling it as well as her brother, & then there is the addition of a new marriage & stepmother in the mix. All of a sudden she is having to share her father. A dirty room should not be that important, building a...

    E-Books, anyone have one?

    I am looking at an ebook reader, kindle, or perhaps a sony. I see they are now offering them at Walmart, anyone have one that they can share information on them? Are the books really $9.99 a download? That really seems high to me, I was thinking they would be more like the I-tune downloads for...

    This is just a dream, but I wanted to see if it was possible...

    When we put on our shows in Central Texas, the club put on a free dinner for the exhibitors the night before. Each year it was a bit of a fight to do this with the facility as they wanted to make sure they were the only ones offering the food services as it was an additional source of income for...

    Getting a mare to accept anothers foals

    While reading about the "twin/adoption story" in the other posting, I just wanted to share a tip that worked for us when we were doing Miniatures. We had a few babies that lost their moms during the foaling season ( one was struck by lightning, another died right after foaling, and two more...

    Anyone with bird experience?

    I have had a number of different birds, sun conures are beautiful but are screamers. One thing to keep in mind, birds have to have a lot of attention to stay friendly, & I would really think about it with a baby on the way. Even if you get a hand raised one ( The friendliest, versus bird raised...

    How hard is it to learn HMTL code to create or maintain a website?

    I have been asked to help to maintain a non profits website because I have created & maintained websites before. But they were using non coded websites, such as homestead. I liked using homestead because once created, it was easy for me to turn it over to another person to maintain, even those...

    Mazie Mobile progress! Update pg 2!

    Just a suggestion to anyone putting horses in a car/van/suv. Please look into buying a divider for the driver area, they make them for large breed dogs & they are removeable if needed, but will keep anything in the back from coming into the front drivers area. Although we had a 8 horse mini...

    Need an easy website to build

    I liked homestead, it was very simple, like putting together a newsletter & had some already made up so all you had to do was change out the text. You can buy a domain name also. They use to have a free 30 day trial at www.homestead.com Good luck Marty, with your decorating & writing skills...

    Importance of transfering sold autos & trailers

    Do you know in some states if you sell a trailer or auto without making sure the new owners transfer it out of your name, you can be held responsible for tickets, or accidents as the "owner of record" on the car or trailer, even years later? It is very important that you make sure that the...

    why. why.

    Its been years since I have bred Miniatures, but at the time of sale, I supplied the photos necessary to transfer them, have the new owner fill out the paperwork, give me a check for the paperwork transfer & sent in the registration papers myself. I started doing this when I noticed that some of...
